So, I have either the beginnings of a cold, or a sinus infection. As a result, I feel kinda grotty and won't be up to much for a while.
In the mean time, I've kluged together a variant of Evil Tea.
In a large mug, combine:
* 2tsp lemon juice
* 2tsp honey
* As much tabasco sauce as you can stand, up to 1tsp
* 1/2 tsp Evil Tea spices (ground ginger, ground cloves, chilli powder, garlic powder, black pepper, in 2:2:1:1:1 proportion)
Stir well. Add:
* 1 packet Yogi Tea "cold season" infusion
* 1 packet Yogi Tea "throat comfort" infusion
* 1 packet pepperment infusion
Fill mug with boiling water. Let steep covered for 10min.
Add 1floz (2Tbsp) distilled spirits. Stir again; the spices won't dissolve. Let cool until just barely drinkable, then drink as quickly as possible. You will probably want to have a glass of water nearby.

I'm drinking it as we speak. I ate breakfast a few hours ago, but this is the first thing I've been able to taste all day.
